Kokushibo vs. Akaza

"Because ghosts and humans are two completely different races."

"The conversion takes a lot of time."

The Scribe nodded, which was an indication that he had agreed with Tamayo's theory.

But he continued to ask.

"So why does the conversion process take so long?"

Once the question was asked, everyone fell silent.

The Scribe didn't hide anything and explained with a smile.

"Because it requires energy, a lot of energy."

"The more powerful it is, the more energy it needs to transform. Naturally, the longer it takes."

"In other words, as long as powerful energy can be provided, the time required for demon transformation can be shortened."

Upon hearing the Scribe's words, Tamayo seemed to understand his meaning.

"You want to use your own Rare Blood?"

"Good."

Slashing his wrist open, the Scribe controlled his muscles to stop the healing process.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, a large amount of blood was spilled.

The blood spilled onto the egg and was instantly absorbed.

After absorbing enough blood, the egg's glow intensified.

"In about thirty minutes, some people will be able to successfully convert."

The wound disappeared when I pressed my finger on my wrist and rubbed it.

At the same time, the Scribe looked at Tanjiro and the others.

"By the way, while you're at it, go and bring the Nichirin Blade over."

"Bring it over?"

"Of course, otherwise how would I forge a sword?"

Tanjiro looked surprised, seemingly not expecting the Scribe to give such a reply.

"You also know how to forge knives?"

Is forging a knife difficult?

The Scribe raised his hand and waved it, sending out a line of blood.

Not long after, the Nichirin Blade he had dropped was brought back.

"I forged this knife myself."

Tanjiro was silent.

Nezuko remained silent...

Inosuke, Agatsuma Zenitsu, and the others remained silent...

In the end, they managed to bring back the shattered Nichirin Blade.

After glancing at it, the Scribe nodded slightly.

"The fragments are all there."

"Alright, step back a few steps."

"I'm going to begin."

After saying that, the Scribe's hand pierced through the bones.

After a series of twists and turns, they came together in a ring.

Then he raised his hand and tossed the sorted pieces of broken blade into the container.

The next second, the Crimson Blood Burning Flame blazed fiercely.

At extremely high temperatures, the Nichirin Blade begins to soften in a short time.

Just as Tanjiro was about to ask the Scribe what he used to strike, he saw the Scribe raise his right fist.

"Ping~"

He threw a punch, slamming it down hard, producing a metallic clang.

The Scribe's fist struck the Nichirin Blade repeatedly, like an iron hammer.

Tanjiro and the others were dumbfounded again.

Physical forging?

If a knife maker saw such skill, he would probably exclaim that it was divine.

Hundreds of years ago, no one could have achieved this level of accomplishment.

Under the forging of the Scribe, the Nichirin Blade quickly took shape.

Finally, the Scribe threw the forged knife into the air and then sprinkled blood on it.

With a hissing sound, a large cloud of bloody mist rose up.

A brand-new, fully forged Nichirin Blade appeared.

Compared to the previous one, this new Nichirin Blade is not much different.

The only difference was the extra red on the sword, which was incredibly glaring.

At first glance, it feels like your eyes are about to be burned.

Tanjiro recognized it as Shinobu Butterfly's sword.

"After you've endured it, have her try it."

Before Tanjiro could even nod, one of the eggs nearby cracked.

Then a figure walked out from there.

Its body is covered in pale purple scales, and the Kocho ornament on its back signifies its identity.

The purple at the ends of her hair was more intense, and several unidentified purple lines appeared on her neck.

Two short, transparent whiskers have appeared above his forehead, like those of Kocho.

Insect Hashira, Shinobu Butterfly, Demon Transformation Complete.

Feeling his body fully transformed into a demon, Shinobu truly realized why humans cannot resist demons.

The difference in physical strength alone is enough to crush 99% of humanity.

She never imagined that her physical condition would be as good as it is now.

How are you feeling?

The Scribe's voice came from behind, Shinobu Butterfly looked in the direction of the sound.

Upon discovering that the Scribe was forging a knife, a look of shock also flashed across his face.

But after realizing what was happening, he nodded slightly.

"It feels great."

"That's good. Try out the new knife."

As Shinobu Butterfly picked up her Nichirin Blade, a hint of joy flashed across her face.

The Nichirin Blade seemed to become one with his body, like an extension of his arm.

They are inseparable, like one entity.

With just this knife, he can increase his combat power by more than 30%.

"Thank you, Mister Scribe."

"You're welcome. Just use it as you like."

The Scribe responded and then continued to immerse himself in forging the sword.

As time went on, more and more eggshells broke.

One after another, figures exuding terrifying auras appeared in this world.

"Kanae Kocho, Sabito, Makomo, Kurokichi."

"These are your knives."

The newly arrived individuals who tried the knife also praised it highly.

Shinobu Butterfly also discovered that the Scribe's forging sequence was quite ingenious.

The order of awakening is exactly the same as that of demon transformation.

There was not a single deviation.

"Has Mister Scribe's assessment of our strength reached this level?"

After a long time, all the cartridge cases shattered.

The powerful members of the Demon Slayer Corps have all turned into demons.
